Title Becoming Attuned to Reality : Presuppositions and the Power of Learning in Action

Abstract What is entailed in accurately reading reality? The main thesis of this paper is that the learning mode of action, reflection, consultation, and study encourages investigators to attend to at least six “interplays” which, together, work to facilitate collaborative readings that are progressively attuned
to reality. Owing to these interplays, this mode of learning in action helps to weed out disabling or harmful presuppositions and corresponding ideas, making it possible to discover and retain enabling
or benefi cial ones. By doing so, it resolves the longstanding problem of how to conceptualize
objectivity and cultivate it in the search for truth.
